AWSCLI -- discovery of the week! Thanks very much
Have set up the config file - mint-linux-15 -- in ~/.aws but get
Unable to locate credentials
when trying to access any command which requires actual AWS access

Steps to reproduce

  1. pip install awscli
  2. Create config file

[default]
aws_access_key = AKIAIYXXXXXXX.......
aws_secret_access_key = NOlG1VXEGXXXXX....
region = ap-southeast-2
3. Check privs on ./aws/config =666

Tried so far

  1. pip upgrade
  2. Set AWS_DEFAULT_OUTPUT with config path

Any tip welcome
Thanks very much

By default, the tools will look for credentials in ~/.aws/config. If you wish to store the config file elsewhere, you can do so and then set the AWS_CONFIG_FILE environment variable.

If you are still having issues, try running a command with the --debug output and post that info here.

Thanks!
